Pepper flatbread is a Turkish savory bread topped with a paste made chiefly from pepper paste and olive oil. The Hatay-style version is often seasoned with sesame and local herbs, then baked until the dough is cooked and the topping is fragrant.
Pepper flatbread is made by spreading a seasoned pepper-paste mixture over dough and baking it. Recipes commonly combine pepper paste with olive oil and may add sesame, onion, or herbs; the dough’s thickness and the topping vary by household and region.
Pepper flatbread is associated especially with Hatay, in southern Türkiye, and the city of Antakya. Related versions are also called biberli ekmek, or pepper bread, and local recipes differ in their dough and seasoning.
The names are often used for closely related Hatay-style breads, but they do not always mean an identical recipe. Pepper flatbread may be made thicker or shaped like a small loaf, while biberli ekmek is often rolled thinner and topped with pepper paste.
Pepper flatbread can be mildly seasoned or quite hot. Its heat comes mainly from the type and amount of pepper paste in the topping, so versions made with sweet pepper paste are gentler than those containing hot pepper.
Pepper flatbread tastes savory, aromatic, and slightly tangy from the pepper paste, with a rich note from the oil. Sesame and regional herbs add a nutty, fragrant quality when included; the level of heat varies between recipes.
Pepper flatbread is commonly eaten on its own or served with olives, cheese, and fresh vegetables. It also works well as part of a Turkish-style breakfast, alongside tea, or with yogurt as part of a light meal.
Keep pepper flatbread in an airtight container in a cool, dry place if you will eat it soon. For longer storage, refrigerate it, though the bread may become firmer; warming it before serving helps restore a softer texture.
Yes, pepper flatbread can be frozen. Let it cool, divide it into portions, and wrap them airtight to prevent freezer burn. Thaw a portion before warming it in the oven or a pan for a fresher texture.
Reheat pepper flatbread in an oven or a covered pan over low heat. The oven helps crisp the surface, while covering it in the pan helps warm the middle without drying the bread out.

Pepper flatbread is a savoury, usually thin bread associated with Hatay and Antakya in southern Turkey. Bread dough is topped with a seasoned pepper-paste mixture before baking; recipes may also include sesame, onion and olive oil. The result is fragrant and gently chewy, with a tangy, sometimes spicy topping rather than the texture of a filled pastry.
In its home region, it is commonly eaten warm for breakfast or as a snack, often with tea; Turkish bakeries also sell it ready to eat. It is mostly a bread-based source of carbohydrates, while the topping contributes some fat. For a lighter meal, pair a piece with fresh vegetables or plain yogurt, and choose a milder version if you prefer less heat.
